siouxfantastic Posted November 26, 2007 Share Posted November 26, 2007 There were a number of linebackers red-shirting this year, including this kid who could be a good one, so hopefully one or more of them will be ready to play next year. We definitely could use a big nose guard in the Callahan/Schultz/Wolff mode. He has nice size. I hope you are right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Sicatoka Posted November 26, 2007 Share Posted November 26, 2007 Given Sorbo's graduation and Tibesar's injury, how's the depth at fullback? Might one of the current LBs who played FB in HS be looked at for a move? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UND92,96 Posted November 26, 2007 Share Posted November 26, 2007 Given Sorbo's graduation and Tibesar's injury, how's the depth at fullback? Might one of the current LBs who played FB in HS be looked at for a move? Good question. I would hope Tibesar would be ready by next year (although I have no idea the extent of his injury), but the only other fullback on the roster that I'm aware of is the Safranski kid from Stephen-Argyle. Speaking of Stephen-Argyle and fullbacks, I saw the state championship game, and was thinking that the Gratzek kid looked like he might be a nice college fullback. I know his brother's at NDSU, but he might be somebody to watch for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What was Tibesar's injury anyway? I had heard it was a ankle injury. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted November 27, 2007 Share Posted November 27, 2007 I'm for a bigger stronger d-line and inside backers. Need more of the Scott Schultz's and Callahan's on the d-line. As for inside backer we need to find another Digger or Travis O'Neal. It would be nice if we could just order up four of the best to play their position. While we're at it, perhaps another Tarkenton or Eller? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big10Sioux Posted November 27, 2007 Share Posted November 27, 2007 How about a replacement for Mr. Electricity. I have heard some good things about Chris Anderson and freshmen. Good size and speed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UND92,96 Posted November 27, 2007 Share Posted November 27, 2007 I'm not sure whether this will impact UND or not, but I see that Rainy River Community College has dropped its football program. As some may remember, that's where highly sought after recruit Deangelo Brackins ended up going (his father was the head coach there). I can only assume there are some pretty good players from that program who might be worth a look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iramurphy Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 Adam Theilen, 6'1'' receiver has been in for a recruiting visit and made another visit on his own. Most Valuable Receiver in the UND FB camp last summer. Turned some heads at UND's 7 on 7 passing contest last summer. Great hands. Catches the ball as well as any HS receiver I have seen. Great position receiver. Physically still maturing. If they offer, he will likely commit. Other NCC schools and I think SDSU looking at him. Bubba really likes him. If he ran a 4.5 he would a big time D1 recruit. Will likely average 20 ppg in basketball this year, great shooter and will get some JC and small college interest in BB. Varsity golfer shoots low 80's to mid 70's and played baseball last spring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like Rainy River football had its share of issues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UND92,96 Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 Hopefully there's another Chris Kuper on the horizon, as Coach Lennon mentioned on the coaches' show tonight that they are recruiting a kid from Alaska again this year.

Big10Sioux Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 Anybody hear anything about the younger brother of David Wisthoff? They are from a small western ND town that probably doesn't get a lot of exposure. Dave was one heck of a player at fullback. I thought that I had heard his brother was a senior and maybe better.

He's something like 6'3", 250, so he's a lot bigger than his brother. He was an all-state linebacker, and also played quarterback (believe it or not!). I wouldn't be at all surprised if UND is looking at him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

siouxforeverbaby Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 They're from Powers Lake, ND. I played against David when I was in high school. not anymore..he plays for Glenburn, ND where their dad (the elder Dave) is the superintendent. He was principal while I was there. Seth is a senior this year, so he would graduate in May. Glenburn doesn't get a whole lot of exposure mainly due to as a team, they haven't been very good lately. They play 9 man in case you were wondering. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UND Fan Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 Sounds like it might be between the Badgers and us for this talented WR: WR Jon Heimler (6-3, 189), Sr., Menomonie Menomonie all-state wide receiver Jon Heimler is getting weekly phone calls from North Dakota State, North Dakota and Minnesota-Duluth. Film has been sent to all three schools and scholarship offer talks could come very soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
